    We told you last year about [2]Hedy Lamarr, the [3]1940s film star
    who also helped invent the technology behind wi-fi and bluetooth
    during World War II. Now, she's the subject of a new documentary
    from PBS's [4]American Masters series. Directed by Alexandra Dean,
    and streaming free online for a limited time, [5]Bombshell: The Hedy
    Lamarr Story, "explores how Lamarr's true legacy is that of a
    technological trailblazer" and features, among other things, "four
    never-before-heard audio tapes of Lamarr speaking on the record
    about her incredible life, finally giving her the chance to tell her
    own story." The winner of several film festival awards, [6]The Hedy
    Lamarr Story premiered across the US on May 18th. Stream it online
    above or also [7]here.
